I'm on a very tight budget but, i also have several dietary restrictions. can i get a prescription for a name brand probiotic i've found to work?

Probiotics: If it is a brand name probiotic that you have purchased over the counter- I doubt it would be a prescription medication. Your medical insurer may decline to pay for your over the counter probiotics.
